Retrospective Review of Outcomes of Total Hip Arthroplasty in Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip in Adults

Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is a major cause of hip arthritis in young adults. Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is an effective treatment for DDH, but few studies have examined mid- (5 to 10 years) to long-term (>10 years) outcomes. This study reports the long-term survivorship, clinical, and radiographic outcomes of THA in DDH patients.
